Answer:the new length will be 25 inches

Explanation:

The photo is rectangular in shape. Jonas wants to determine the enlarged dimensions of a photo to be framed. This means that the length and width of the original photo will be increased by a scale factor. The scale factor would be

Original length/original width = 6/4 = 1.5

Therefore, the length is always 2.5×the width

If the width of the new photo will be 10 inches, then the length would be

2.5 × 10 = 25 inches
